: Run Ronnie Run!

Rather distasteful but occasionally brilliantly funny story about a rural idiot who’s always getting arrested and ends up in Hollywood on his own reality TV series (where each week he gets arrested in a different city). It’s a mildly amusing idea, but the main character is such a doofus you really don’t care about it or the story. What saves the movie (though only marginally) are all the little in-between gags, like the very-well-done reality TV scenes, and things like — my favorite — an outrageously awful music video interlude. The whole thing is more like a series of gags than a cohesive film and thus it doesn’t really work, but it there are moments of hilarity that might make it good if you’re bored.
